It is not everyday that visitors from China arrive by road. So when 23 China-registered sports-utility vehicles and two buses drove into Singapore via the Second Link on Monday, they were given the VIP treatment and the special contingent was escorted by auxillary police to Sentosa.
Their 6,000km odyssey began in the southern Chinese city of Nanning on Sept 27, and their trip brought them through Vietnam, Laos, Thailand and Malaysia.
The Chinese delegates on wheels - made up of about 110 government officials, motor club members, tour operators and TV crew - will stretch their legs and soak in the sights until Wednesday morning when they will make the return trip - again by road. They will be accompanied by two cars from Singapore and two from Malaysia.
The fleet will be staying here for two days before returning to Guangxi. The entire convoy of 29 vehicles will be flagged off by Sembawang GRC MP Lim Wee Kiak, who is patron of the Singapore Motor Sports Association, and Singapore Sports Council's Chief Executive Oon Jin Teik.
The long drives are part of the China Asean International Touring Assembly (CAITA 2007), a fringe event of the China-Asean Summit 2007 - a heads-of-state gathering hosted by the Chinese government. Among other things, CAITA 2007 aims to promote connectivity in road transport between China and Asean countries.
